    Thank you so much, Jan. I just found you, and I'm wondering why it took me so long. Your teaching style is really so calming and informative. And fun. 😊 I have a question that's a bit off topic and hope you can help. I will be sewing a bridle bag with ottertex waterproof canvas (wish me luck). I have never used the fabric before and was wondering what stitch length to use. I thought I'd use a denim needle to help with the layers. My new machine is a janome mc6700p. I traded in my babylock machine with embroidery, etc. Anway, thanks again for all you do. I will be making a self binding baby blanket and burp rags later today 😊

    • @JanHowell
      @JanHowell  Před rokem

      You are so welcome. I would probably use a denim needle or at least a size 90

  • @shawncrafty

    Thank you so much for the tips! I'm sewing bowl cozies with 2 layers of batting. What sewing needle should I use?

    • @JanHowell
      @JanHowell  Před rokem +1

      I would probably use at least a 90. If it's too bulky you may want to use a denim needle.

  • @peeshyholland433
    @peeshyholland433 Před rokem

    I have a Babylock Brilliant and the machine sounds like it’s hammering the fabric when it goes over the slightest thickness. I don’t remember it doing that when it was new but maybe it did.

    Big loop stitch underneath 2:46 2:50 2:51

  • @Kaila999
    @Kaila999 Před rokem

    At 4:20, there is a long stitch on the right side of the fabric…not as long as with the hump jumper, but still about 2x-3x longer than the other stitches. Is that a problem?

    • @JanHowell
      @JanHowell  Před rokem

      Not so much. Those really long stitches would be problematic.
